Alright, I'm lost in the analogy now. What's the dick in Linux?

As you can see, vaginal pH roughly correlates to distance from the equator, with pH increasing as you move away from the equator. In this essay...

Exactly. It only carries weight if you believe it carries weight or if there are laws/punishments behind it.

But in the eyes of the one committing these crimes they may fully believe they are justified. There are people out there who have minds that are biologically different than the majority. These people may lack empathy or even find joy in hurting others and see no moral issue with it. Who is to definitively say that they are wrong? You would have to believe in a god or follow a religion of some kind for this argument to be sound. And there is plenty of evidence against the existence of a god(s).

You've got ghosts in your blood. Better do cocaine about it.

Years ago I was talking with a pregnant coworker about our families. We got onto the subject of how quiet I am. She said "I would hate it if my daughter turned out to be like you." I was just stunned tbh. Like damn, I can't help it that I'm quiet. Why is that such a bad thing?

And once again I'm unwillingly reminded that the Berserk horse is a thing.

I had a coworker that was heavily into this stuff. She got breast cancer and decided to go this route. If she isn't dead she most likely will be soon. The last I heard it wasn't pretty. She was in her early 30s.

I don't have an answer and it is the one thing I am truly afraid of. As an autistic man in this society I have come to the conclusion that I will most likely be alone in the future. Developing relationships of any kind is extremely difficult for me. Right now I'm ok because I have family that are still alive and want to care for me. But when they die where will I be? I've fully accepted that I may die by suicide in my 50s due to loneliness.

If not an outright ban then a soft ban is likely. There are already many apps/websites that don't allow VPN traffic. It may get to the point where we have to self-host our own VPNs through a VPS or something like that.

 

I just finished setting up my own Jellyfin server. Lately I've been getting into using open source software and this weekend I thought it would be nice to self host on an old thinkpad I had from my college days. There were a few roadblocks I encountered, but ultimately I got it working. Now with the Finamp/Jellyfin app I can have a Spotify/Netflix-like experience completely free (well minus the domain name cost). I highly recommend it if you have been thinking about doing it for a while like I was. I'm so glad we have open source software like Lemmy and Jellyfin available to us.

Edit: Thanks to everyone who suggested not using Cloudflare tunnels. I'm sure they would have got me eventually. I am now successfully running Jellyfin with Pangolin and couldn't be happier.

 

Lately I've been trying to degoogle/decorp my life in an effort to increase my privacy. So far I'm running GrapheneOS, using open-source software/apps (VPN, email, cloud storage etc), switched to Linux, switched browsers/search engines, and even switched from smart devices to analog ones. The only thing I have left that I can reasonably give up is a google home router. However, new routers are quite expensive for me. Is it worth buying a new one or does it even matter?
